Pregnancy, Birth & Beyond Support Services

Whilst we wholeheartedly support women’s decision-making rights regarding free birth, we at Serene Births have made the conscious decision to only provide our birth support services to those who are under the care of a registered maternity care provider. We feel as though with our background in midwifery, situations may present where our actions would fall beyond the scope of practice as a doula. After consulting with our legal team to clarify our duty of care, we have decided that presently we are not able to take on clients who are choosing to free birth.

Free 45 Minute Consultation

Birth is one of the most life-changing and intimate moments of your life, and finding the right birth support service for you and your family can have such a positive impact on your birth experience. It’s important you find someone who you feel safe and comfortable with, and whose philosophy and beliefs align with your own. That is why we offer a 100% obligation and fee-free meeting, so you can decide if we feel right for you. Click on the button below to make your booking today.
